3 What are prepayment meters? Just like pay-as-you-go mobile phones, prepayment meters are ones you top up with credit before you use any energy. So, they can help you stay in control of how much you spend and stop you getting into debt. How they can benefit you You don t get any unexpected large bills. They let you control how much you spend. If you owe us money, they help you pay it back bit by bit when you top up. They come with Emergency Credit for when you can't get out to the shops. And you get a statement every year so you can keep track of how much energy you've used. Prepayment Meter Guide 3

4 Setting up your meters When your meters have been fitted, we ll send you a prepayment gas card and/or an electricity key to top them up with. Gas Prepayment Card Gas Prepayment Card Electricity Prepayment Key IMPORTANT when your card/key arrives: Before you top up for the first time you need to activate your card/key. Just pop it in the meter for at least thirty seconds. You ll hear a bleep when it s done. Don t use any old cards or keys you may lose any credit you buy if you do. TOP TIP! Look after your card/key and keep it somewhere safe. You ll have to pay 5 if you need a new one. 4 Prepayment Meter Guide

5 Topping up your meters You need to keep your prepayment meter topped up with credit. So, remember to check your meter display regularly to see how much money is left on your meter. When you re ready to buy credit Just take your Utility Warehouse card/key to a top up outlet see below. You can add anything from 1 to 49, and have up to 255 credit on your meter at any time. When you get home, put your key/card into your meter to top it up. Where to top up You can top up at any Payzone, PayPoint and most Post Office outlets just keep an eye out for their signs. Don t be tricked by criminals Energy companies never sell credit door to door. So, if someone tries to sell you a top up on your doorstep don t be tempted! You could end up paying for your energy twice, once to the criminal and then to us. TOP TIP! Keep all your receipts when you buy credit. We'll need their details if you ve any problems topping up. Find your nearest place to top up: Payzone Visit payzone.co.uk or call PayPoint Visit paypoint.co.uk or call Post Office Visit postoffice.co.uk or call Prepayment Meter Guide 5

7 Understanding your electricity meter screens The screens on your prepayment meter show lots of useful information to help you keep track of your credit, how much energy you re using, and any outstanding debt. Simply press the blue display button to flick from one screen to the other. You'll need to put your electricity key in the meter to see screens R, S and T. Screen A B C D E F G H I J K R S T What it shows The total amount of credit on the account The amount of Emergency Credit that will be repaid with the next top up The time The date The amount of credit topped up on the meter The total weekly standing charge and repayment rate Total electricity used in kwh Day/Normal meter reading Day/Normal tariff in pence Night/Low meter reading Night/Low tariff in pence Amount of Emergency Credit available Debt outstanding on the meter Weekly recovery rate To read your meter, press the blue button until screen H appears and note your reading. If your meter also displays screens J and L (for two and three rate meters) please also note the readings on these screens. Prepayment Meter Guide 7

8 Understanding your gas meter screens To see the different screens on your gas meter: 1. If you've just topped up, take your card out of the meter. 2. Press and hold the red button marked A until you hear a beep. 3. Let go of the button and 00 will be displayed. 4. Keep pressing A to scroll between the screens. 5. You'll need to put your gas card in the meter to see screens 25, 26 and 27. Once you ve finished, don t leave your gas card in the meter as this will shorten its battery life. There are 31 screens, but only some of them will be useful to you. Here's what the most important screens show: Display number What it shows 00 The latest amount of credit topped up on the meter 01 The amount from the last top up that went towards the debt on the meter 02 The amount of credit from the top up that went towards gas usage 10 Price per kwh of gas 17 Daily standing charge 25 The minimum debt repayment you ll pay each week 26 The maximum debt repayment you ll pay each week 27 The amount of debt on the meter to be repaid How to read your meter: If your gas meter has dials, please note the numbers in black. The reading on a gas meter with an LED screen is accessed by pressing the red 'A' button repeatedly until it gets to the meter index screen. There are only three screens to flick through. 8 Prepayment Meter Guide

9 Emergency Credit for when you need it There's an Emergency Credit of 5 on your meter for when you can't get out to a top up outlet. You'll need to pay it back when you next top up so only use it in emergencies. Electricity When your meter has less than 1 of credit it ll beep to warn you and an E will flash on the display, which lets you know that Emergency Credit is available. To start using it put your key in the meter if it's already in, just take it out and put it back. The meter will beep three times to confirm you're now using Emergency Credit. Gas IMPORTANT first check that all gas appliances are switched off before putting your card in the meter. A message saying 'PRESS BUTTON A to accept the Emergency Credit' will come on the display screen. Press the red 'A' button and your Emergency Credit will be ready to use. You ll need to pay any standing charges and weekly repayments too before you can use energy again. TOP TIP! If you use all your Emergency Credit, you'll have no energy. Top up before this happens. And switch off all your gas and electricity appliances when you do. Prepayment Meter Guide 9

10 Repaying a debt If you're paying off a debt through your meter you'll need to buy enough credit to cover your repayments, the energy you'll use until you top up again, and your daily standing charge. Gas meter Your gas meter will check if you're paying off a debt when you top it up. If you are, the agreed repayment amount will be taken from your credit first. The meter will then take back any Emergency Credit you've used, and then any daily standing charges. Everything else will show as a credit on your meter. Screen 26 shows the weekly recovery rate to pay back your debt. Screen 27 shows the amount of your debt. Electricity meter When you top up, the meter will check to see if you ve used any Emergency Credit and that all daily standing charges have been paid. If anything is owed, it'll be taken from your top up. The rest of your top up will be added as a credit on your meter. The meter then breaks down your weekly repayment into chunks which are taken from your credit each hour. Screen S shows the amount of your debt. Screen T shows the weekly recovery rate to pay back your debt. TOP TIP! If your home is going to be empty for a while, and you won't be using much energy, leave enough credit on your meter to pay your daily standing charge - it still gets taken every day. Your credit could run out if you don't and any appliances you've left on, like a fridge or boiler, will stop working. If you'd like to make extra one-off payments, or increase your weekly repayment amount, please call us on Prepayment Meter Guide

There is now a single three digit national number you can call them on: Gas If you: Suspect a gas leak at any time day or night Can t turn off your gas supply Or have no gas supply at all Contact us If you need help with anything, our Prepayment team at prepayment@utilitywarehouse.co.uk or give them a call on Please make sure you re near the meter when you call us, as we may ask you to check it while we talk to you. POWER CUT? CALL 105 You MUST call the free Gas Emergency Service on They are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Top tips on what to do during a power cut Switch off all electricity appliances at the socket that shouldn't be left unattended e.g. electric heaters. If you don t, there s the possibility you could cause a fire or damage your appliances. It s a good idea to unplug any sensitive electrical devices, such as computers, as they could be damaged if there s a power surge when the electricity comes back on. Only use a torch for emergency lighting unattended candles can cause fires. Keep the door to your fridge closed as much as possible. And don t open your freezer at all. Leave an electric light on so that you know when the power is up and running again. If you ve got any neighbours who may need extra help or reassurance during power cut, please take time to check that they re okay. If you ve electric heating, wrap up warm. Never use charcoal or gas barbecues, camping heating equipment, or home generators indoors. They give off carbon monoxide, and because you can't smell or see it carbon monoxide poisoning can be fatal. Prepayment Meter Guide 15
